"I KNOW THAT MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS HIGH WHEN MY NOSE STARTS BLEEDING."
CORRECT - HYPERTENSION IS USUALLY ASYMPTOMATIC. A NOSE BLEED CAN OCCUR WITH
HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, BUT IT CAN OCCUR FOR MANY OTHER REASONS AS WELL. IT IS QUITE
COMMON THAT THE CLIENT'S BLOOD PRESSURE IS HIGH AND THE CLIENT EXPERIENCES NO
SYMPTOMS. IT IS IMPORTANT TO HELP CLIENTS UNDERSTAND THAT THEY CANNOT RELY ON
ONE PARTICULAR SYMPTOM TO TELL IF THEIR PRESSURE IS ELEVATED. IT WOULD BE VERY
DANGEROUS FOR CLIENTS TO THINK THEIR BLOOD PRESSURE IS ONLY HIGH IF THEY HAVE A
NOSE BLEED.
THE NURSE IS PARTICIPATING IN THE DISCHARGE PLANS FOR A CLIENT WITH HYPERTENSION.
WHICH STATEMENT BY THE CLIENT WOULD CAUSE CONCERN?
1
"I AM AT RISK FOR STROKE OR HEART ATTACK IF MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS NOT CONTROLLED."
2
"I KNOW THAT MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS HIGH WHEN MY NOSE STARTS BLEEDING."
3
"I WILL TAKE MY BLOOD PRESSURE TWO TIMES A DAY FOR AT LEAST 7 DAYS."
4
"I WILL ASK MY SPOUSE TO START WALKING WITH ME IN THE MORNINGS."
